"A literary novel of 14th century Ireland"--Cover.
Description
"Ireland 1349. Inside the nunnery of St Gobnait's, Meadbh's days are constrained by the hours of prayer and the close scrutiny of the abbess, though Meadbh has yet to take her vows. Her bees are her only solace. They understand her. But as the plague slowly creeps westward towards this group of nuns, Meadbh's ordered life is thrown into chaos when she's called home to tend her ailing father and the man chosen to accompany her there proves to be more than just an escort, one whose skills are more a warrior's than a labourer's. A man she's not sure she can trust. Meadbh is tossed into a world where the upheaval of war, cycles of famine and now plague have changed the very nature of society's fragile structure for both native Irish and Anglo-Irish. And now, Meadbh must now navigate a path through the chaos to secure her own future at a time when women have few choices."--Page 4 of cove.
